Bishop McKay Jones agreed to the possibility of a public discussion.

>> Monday, August 24, 2009


Last evening the LDS church held a public lecture on "Are Mormons Christian?" We are tremendously grateful for the opportunity presented for a public discussion and dialogue between Bishop Jones of the LDS church and myself. Mr. Jones seems like a gracious and very nice guy and I have tremendous respect for his willingness to engage in such a discussion. We still need to connect with all the parties involved and iron out details that would make both of us comfortable. We will announce more details as they become available. Please pray for us as we begin the process.

One of the greatest challenges presenting itself to Mormons and Christians alike is misunderstanding. Misunderstanding creates confusion and erects walls between us. Walls that exist between us only serve to create further divides and destroy any possibility of us having ANY effective dialogue or having any meaningful relationships. This should not be. God has presented an opportunity for us to begin an honest, loving, respectful and effective dialogue. When we held our public event in April, we allowed the audience to come up to the microphone and ask questions publicly and challenge what we were saying. Yet, the complaint from the LDS in attendance was that they would like to see the LDS church represented by an apologist. We agreed that that would be most effective. Last evening the complaint from the audience was that it was not truly an "open forum" event as the audience was not allowed to "ask" (verbally) questions or dialogue. The questions had to be written on cards. The complaint was that the LDS were allowed to go unchallenged and were simply pontificating. With an event like this, we can put both of those charges to rest.

Audio of "Bible Answer Man" is finally up.

>> Monday, August 10, 2009


Sorry for the delay everyone. Although I spoke with Hank last week (Tuesday) it took them until today to actually broadcast it. I wanted to speak with Hank and have him on record before I respond specifically point-by-point to Andrew. I chose to do this, so that Andrew could see the inconsistency with his gospel and the Gospel that Hank is preaching just before his show airs. I know that "Christians" are not the sole infallible rule of faith-- Scripture is. However, I think it is important to point out that Andrew's gospel is in conflict with the men who share the station with him (Sproul, Macarthur, Stanley, etc.)... even with the man whose show airs before his. What kind of message is that sending to the world and to the kingdom of the cults?

Please hang on for further response.

He is Glorious!

Response coming soon...

I want to thank you all (including the very gracious Mr. Tallman) for being so patient with our response to this issue. I have been extremely busy with ministry from around the country (and locally) and had to perform a funeral for a brother of mine who passed. Lord willing, I will be posting a quick biblical response as well as the audio from a conversation I had with Hank Hanegraaff that is extremely relevant and needs to be heard. I would like to say, I am very impressed and encouraged by Andrew's willingness to change his views if they are not in accord with Scripture. I also would like to compliment him on how he handles his blog. :]

More coming soon! Please stay tuned!
